Ford Fiesta Hatchback (2017 - 2023) ST-Line X 1.0T EcoBoost 140PS 5d Owner Review

I bought this as my first car and going from borrowing an old Aygo to this, what a world of difference. Brilliant to drive, the feedback you get from the wheel is perfect. Fuel consumption is excellent, the best I’ve managed was 67mpg on a long motorway tank from full. Boot space is more than adequate and passengers never complain about comfort. My only real niggle with the car is that the wing mirrors aren’t as big as I would like. I got the car with every option except the CD player and self park, and the LED headlights which I really wanted were not available to option when I bought the car. The infotainment system is excellent, especially when hooked up to my iPhone. Insurance was very cheap considering I had no no-claims (going from a named driver). Safety tech is good, the lane departure assist can be a little intrusive, the lane departure warning is more helpful. BLIS is excellent, and so is emergency braking - it has had a couple of ‘false positives’, but it’s saved me from having collisions twice so the false pos is worth it.
